I got the idea to use a standard multistar 8000mah 4s battery that fits perfectly in the Solo batery tray in place of the stock 5200mah battery. Doing the numbers it should yield a 20 minute flight. I had to turn off the normal Solo smart battery sense.
I made an adapter from a connector in a bad battery I bought off ebay. I can not recommend this procedure to anyone else. It is dangerous to try and open a 3dr solo battery. Mine caught on fire during the process when I touched the circuit brd inside with my blade. So don't try and reproduce this.
I will regain battery monitoring by using a CANbus UC4H battery power module designed by OlliW which is not installed on the adapter in the picture yet.
I can't do actual flight tests because it is -22 below zero and the tests would not be useful and I am a woos.
